A watched pot never boils....

I have been anticipating the first blooms for Ruby Lipstick. We are almost there... Check out the three teeth on that bud!

Cynthia Louise Valente - Another first bloom on a new one - this is like unwrapping gifts at Christmas!

Choral Fantasy looks a little better...

Rainbow Candy

I thought I would throw in a hosta picture. This is where the daylily Bluebird Sky lives. It may look like its all hosta, however there are a lot of daylilies living in my "Yellow Twig" garden.

Barbara Mitchell is looking so velvety and sweet

Livingston Seedling #18 - a wonderful grape color with a light blue/grape halo and bright green throat. Only about 2 inches in size.

Tennyson - another bonus plant that took me by surprise! Great color.

And because I am a hostaholic, I threw in one more hosta group shot for good measure.

Beautiful daylilies & hosta. I think that first picture is the definition of anticipation! Quite the teaser!

Barbara Mitchell looks so soft and dainty, just lovely. Cynthia Louise Valente is a lovely color. I also like your hosta. Which one is it? Marg

What's the variegated shrub above the chartreuse hosta? A nice combination in that bed.

Thank you for the feedback.
I agree with you Val, I think my favorite is Tennyson. Mantis, the variegated shrub is a five-leaf arelia (behind Hosta Choo Choo Train). It seems to be a very good grower in the shade.
Marric, the photo of Cynthia Louise Valente (while not a great one) may not really represent the color of this daylily. It will be interesting to see how the next bloom photographs because I believe she will be more of a pinky purple. In the first hosta picture, one of my favorites is the upright gold - Tequila Sunrise.

CHORAL FANTASY is just beautiful! I can't wait to see RUBY LIPSTICK in bloom! It looks like its going to have wonderful edges!

I like your garden pics of the hostas. Very nice.

I like the pencil line eye on Tennyson.
